3 PAX for Crazy Time- Maybe We’ll Do Something Different…

/in /QIC:
PAX: , ,

Eager to find out what Pikachu had planned for this morning’s edition of Crazy Time, Mookie arrived early to the Womble playground 5 minutes before the 4:30am Crazy Time start. Upon hearing the sound of quick feet hitting the ground in the distance, he figured this had to be Pikachu fresh off an EC run, but found out it was Yogurt equally eager for a beat down. 430 arrived, and as the rule goes…All F3 workouts must start on time. We took off for the standard route warm up loop around the soccer fields were we met up with Crosby. PAX completed the 1 mile loop and proceed to the playground to knock out the standard regiment of 100 pullups, 200 merkins, 300 squats, with Yogurt mixing in some LBC’s to put in some additional core work. As this was a rare Pikachu fartsack, Crosby did the honors and went shirtless in his absence during the workout.  We knew he was with us in spirit. PAX completed the second mile loop to complete the workout.

Hopefully next week we will find out what that something different is. My guess is that it is something that rhymes with ‘Burpee’

PAX went on to double down this morning after Crazy Time- Crosby\Yogurt: Cletus; Mookie: Crazy Ivan

Warm Up: 1st mile

Pax of 17 came out on a drizzly Monday morning to answer one question – was Pikachu done using his new job as an excuse?

~7 Pax got in EC at 5:15. Wescott grabbed another FNG so disclaimers were read and we were off.

Warm Up:

Run to the top

11 LBCs

Repeated down to 6 burpees and 15 pickle pounders since they’re our favorite. Threw in some backwards running, a bear crawl (that got audibled to 2/3 of the way – that’s a long ramp) and some runs all the way down to the stop sign off the entrance road.

Did one more quality burpee at the bottom and then went to the basketball courts for the grand finale.
